Can I claim that this is the Easiest Bread Pudding recipe when, in fact, I’ve never made a different recipe in which to compare it??
Just like any recipe, I wouldn’t share it if it wasn’t easy to make. I’d actually never attempted Bread Pudding until recently when I:
- Had a bag of leftover pancakes in my fridge and
- Needed something special to feed a large group.
So I did a little research, then adapted and created this. It’s a huge hit!

This is truly a great option to make with leftover pancakes. I find that re-warming pancakes isn’t as tasty as serving them fresh off a griddle. So to cut them up and douse them in this milk and egg mixture to make Bread Pudding? Such a perfect idea!
The soccer team enjoyed this treat, as did our family. Are you a Bread Pudding fan?
